The person who was speaking was Tian Yi, also a military wife from the city, and she usually got along well with Yang Shujing.
These days, she has heard Yang Shujing say bad things about Lin Yiwan.
What's the point of being aloof? Why don't you get along with everyone?
What do you mean you understand the ways of the world? You've been with the army for so long, and you still want to cook warm-house meals and get to know everyone.
He also said that she was being special and would rather have a shower room at home than a toilet.
After listening to her so many times, Tian Yi no longer had a good impression of Lin Yiwan.
Now seeing her using wood ash to wash pig intestines, she couldn't help but complain.
As soon as he finished speaking, the military wife next to him pulled his sleeve.
"Tian Yi, stop talking nonsense. Be careful or your old Feng will get mad at you."
They came as guests, but also to cause trouble.
If Lin Yiwan heard it, it would be so embarrassing!
Tian Yi curled her lips and said nothing more.
But she had already made up her mind in her heart that she would definitely touch the pig intestine with her chopsticks.
She was the only one who thought so. Other military wives from the city basically had the same idea.
Lin Yiwan didn't listen to what the two said. She sprinkled salt on the pig's large intestine, rinsed it clean, and then turned it over.
After finishing these, Lin Yiwan dealt with the big bones.
The military wives hadn't recovered from the shock of the pig intestines yet, and when they saw her taking out a large skeleton, their expressions were all a little stunned.
Lin Yiwan doesn't look like such a stingy person. Why does she use only leftovers to entertain guests?
This big bone doesn’t even have any meat on it!
Malanhua watched Lin Yiwan chopping the bones, with an expression on her face that seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Could it be that the Xie family encountered some difficulties?
Okay, I'll ask her husband Gao later. If there is really something wrong, they can lend a hand to help.
Lin Yiwan had already asked the chef to help her cut the big bones. After cleaning them, she put them into the pot to make soup.
The big bones were already crackling after being boiled, but Lin Yiwan actually added so much water.
Now, everyone had completely given up hope on her craftsmanship.
Malanhua was a little embarrassed. After all, she had praised Lin Yiwan a lot in the past!
How could she have thought that she would end up like this?
But with so many people around, she couldn't say anything and could only continue to help her.
Some people picked and washed vegetables, some peeled garlic and washed ginger, and some soaked dried goods.
The military wives were busy. Lin Yiwan was blanching pork bones and large intestines while adding seasonings and spices to another pot of boiling water.
Malanhua was already helping to cook, and she was a little surprised to see Lin Yiwan stop putting things in the pot.
"Yiwan, what are you doing?"
Adding so many things to clear water, what are you cooking?
Lin Yiwan did not hide it either.
"I'll make some stewed food."
Braised food?
In this day and age, when people have money to buy meat, they all buy fat meat and bring it home to fry and eat slowly.
Frying oil is basically used to make braised pork. Who would be willing to spend money on these messy things to make braised food?
"It's better to buy two kilograms of meat than to do all these fancy things."
Tian Yi couldn't help but complain again.
This time, the military wife next to her stopped trying to persuade her.
Because she felt that Lin Yiwan was so stingy that it was a bit outrageous.
Her voice was quite soft, but the military wives nearby could hear it.
Although they didn't say anything, they were very impressed by Tian Yi's words in their hearts.
When you treat someone, you should be generous and open-minded, just treat them.
When they first came to join the army, they treated everyone to meat!
Unlike Lin Yiwan, who just gave everyone some big bones and pig intestines to send them away?
Lin Yiwan felt the gazes of the military wives who wanted to talk but didn't, but she didn't explain and continued with the work at hand step by step.
Put the blanched bones into the pot.
Just as I was about to add the pig intestines, I suddenly heard a contemptuous voice from the door.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you said you were from Beijing, but you don't even know the most basic way of entertaining guests. If I had known you were doing this, I would have come here."
Because Yang Shuxue was angry with her during this period, Yang Shujing had completely hated Lin Yiwan in her heart.
He was also very polite when speaking.
Looking at her, Lin Yiwan felt helpless.
The Northwest Military Region is tough, and the conditions for accompanying the troops are much more relaxed than in other areas.
On the other hand, only officers above the rank of deputy battalion commander can bring their families with them.
Because of development needs, family members of major-level officers can come here.
There are many people in the family compound, and they can invite them all.
Xie Lin invited six of his better comrades and their families.
The identities of the regiment leader and political commissar are quite sensitive, so Xie Lin did not invite them to avoid being accused of trying to curry favor with his superiors.
Yang Shujing's man is the director of the political department. Although he is only a battalion-level officer, he has the power to assess cadres and recommend promotions.
Even though he didn't like her, Lin Yiwan was not willing to ruin Xie Lin's relationship with his comrades because of himself.
It is also possible to just let her swallow her anger and fight back.
Thinking of this, she pursed her lips and greeted him with a smile.
"Oh, is it Yang Shujing who is here? What a shame. Last week, the political commissar's wife said that the food in our family compound should be on par with that of the villagers. I am learning to cook with leftovers, and for a moment I forgot that you are from Shencheng and are used to eating these."
On the surface, he greeted her warmly, but no one could hear the hidden meaning in his words!
Seeing her moving the political commissar, Yang Shujing's face froze!
The warning words her husband had said when she left the house flashed through her mind. She snorted and turned her head away.
"Sharp tongue! I'm too lazy to tell you."
Anyway, she will never eat this stuff later! It’s disgusting just thinking about it.
Lin Yiwan's mood improved when she saw her face turned black with anger.
Yang Shujing walked straight towards Tian Yi, and the two of them sat in the corner and started complaining about Lin Yiwan.
Lin Yiwan didn't give in and just replied directly.
"I understand. I'll put the stewed food further away and make sure you guys get it. Okay?"
Hearing this, Yang Shujing rolled her eyes.
"Who cares about this stuff? Just remember what you said!"
Lin Yiwan's lips flickered slightly, and something flashed in his eyes.
Ignoring her, she put the pig intestines into the pot, asked Malanhua to reduce the size, and then she took another bag from the corner.
When the bag was opened, there was pork and fish inside!
The pork belly looked like it weighed at least three pounds, and the fish were pretty big, as there were three of them.
Unexpectedly, she not only bought pig intestines, but also fish meat. Those who had complained about her in their hearts just now were suddenly embarrassed.
Malanhua breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Mr. Xie’s financial situation is fine! She was worried for nothing.
As soon as the pork and fish were taken out, a group of children came over.
The children's eyes almost glowed green when they saw the fatty pork!
That's pork!
Lin Yiwan put the meat on a plate and went to deal with the fish first.
The fish was still alive when I bought it, but now it has just died.
She cut the fish open, separated the meat from the bones, and then cut the meat into pieces.
In about half an hour, all three fish were cut into thin slices!
The children were still surrounding the large piece of pork, their mouths drooling.
Gulu
Gulu
…
It smells so good...I really want to take a bite!
Just as I was thinking this, suddenly, the children discovered something was wrong!
The aroma comes from the pork! !
Just as I was thinking this, suddenly, a surprised voice came from the door.
"Old Xie, what is your wife cooking? It smells so good, doesn't it?"
